Just thinking about getting my eldest daughter (12) involved in some form of auto sport and im thinking auto grass class 1.
A friend has his lad doing it and were going to go to there next meeting / race.
Does anyone else know th costs i might need to be ready for if wshe wants to have a go, im almost sure you can hire and drive at some of the meetings just to see if she likes it.

I don't think you can run a Fireblade Turbo engine in that class Joe.

Can be as cheap or dear as you like, just built a class one for under £600.....not a Mini but a bubble Micra 998cc, allowed into Class one next year (running as an experimental car this year)
If you want any info u2u me and I'll give you a phone number, you can give me a bell, I'm an ex Autograss club chairman so should be able to sort you out.
Good luck, by the way most who try it enjoy it and continue !!!!
